GeminiSomeone's health is on your mind on Monday, and you may spend some time doing some Internet research to figure out exactly what they're going through. You are drawing closer to your good friends this week than ever. On Tuesday and Wednesday, the connection between you and a pal is extreme and deep -- an exhilarating bond. The latter half of the week will be consumed with work stuff (bizarre personalities, hidden agendas, hard deadlines), but this weekend is a good time for reflection. It will also be good for some risk-taking in the restaurant department

AriesMonday and Tuesday will be troubling for you, but not so much that you can't deal with life. Try to avoid signing or agreeing to anything, and things will turn out all right. Midweek is much better as you feel a surge of energy that just won't quit. Almost any move you make will turn out to be the right one. You might find yourself drawn toward art or highbrow culture. The weekend will bring finances and a nostalgia for times past to the forefront of your mind. This could be a great time for shopping -- if you can afford it

TaurusThe first few days of the week will be filled with friends -- and their needs. You won't mind at all, and will actually notice your relationships grow more rewarding. The middle of the week might zip past you, but don't pick up your pace to try to catch up, especially if it's your birthday. That deal that seems too good to be true probably is. The weekend will be fun and filled with good times and good people. Taking it easy is your best bet, but anything you choose to do will work out well. Money shouldn't be a problem.

Gemini Your job situation will be slightly confusing on Monday, and the situation won't resolve itself for a day or two. Someone you can ordinarily count on for clarity will become obscure. Soon the fog will lift, and you'll have more good advice than you'll know what to do with. Get organized and see if you can move up to a new level. You might have to get the ball rolling, but others will help once you get things started. The weekend will bring challenges, but they'll mostly be opportunities to discover hidden strengths.

CancerMonday and Tuesday bring a tidal surge of tremendous energy that help you move forward on large-scale efforts, but it may also keep you from paying close attention to small details. The middle of the week sharpens your mind and your focus, so you should be able to catch anything you missed earlier. Be careful not to say too much before you've thought things through. The weekend should be intensely social for you and allow you to follow up on introductions and suggestions from earlier in the week

LeoLie low early in the week -- you'll need to really watch it when handling money or considering purchases. Do your homework, but make sure to also listen to your gut. New and exciting information comes your way on Thursday or Friday that should dramatically improve your mood. It might be a good time for a celebration. Job worries might keep you up late over the weekend, especially if you're struggling with an ethical dilemma. Try to rise above the situation, and you might find an unexpected answer.

VirgoPeople will disappoint you on Monday and Tuesday, but try not to let it show. As much as you'd like to set them straight, there's no way they'll be able to take your criticism at this point. You'll feel invigorated and somewhat above the situation by midweek, and you may likely find an exciting new sense of direction and purpose. Try to rein in the impulse to spend like crazy -- it will pass. Social engagements over the weekend will be more harmonious than you had hoped, and could result in deeper relationships.

LibraThe first two days of this week will be filled with interruptions and distractions that threaten to keep you from completing your daily tasks. Try to lie low and ride it out. Wednesday and Thursday will focus on your important relationships, and you'll find yourself feeling quite strongly. If you're unhappy, look more deeply at things, and you might find that it's a matter of perspective. You'll feel more attractive than usual over the weekend, but don't let that tempt you into being stingy with your time and attention. Give everyone their due.

ScorpioThe early part of the week is a great time to make your dreams come true -- especially if those dreams involve love or romance. Don't be shy about creating new opportunities for yourself. You'll want to take some kind of direct action on Thursday and Friday, but make sure there's at least an element of generosity in your motivation or you'll risk looking mean-spirited. What you do this weekend will affect your close friends and relations, so try to be as open as possible with them.

SagittariusMonday and Tuesday will be slow-moving and maybe a little awkward for you. Be careful with valuables, as you're at high risk of losing things until Wednesday. At that time, you'll feel an influx of strong and active energy that will cause you to seek out fun in all its forms. Romance is waiting for you, if you're interested. The weekend will be great if you narrow your focus to the small tasks that keep your life humming along. It's a good time to communicate with a partner.

CapricornYour creativity will be unleashed Monday and Tuesday, so make sure to get it all down. Writing will be especially appealing, though any form of expression should suit you just fine. Some regularly scheduled event in the middle of the week will put your home and work life at odds with each other, but you'll make the right decision in the end. Over the weekend, you'll feel a lovely sense of calm that should help you with any difficult discussions you've been putting off. It's also a great time to go bargain-hunting.

AquariusEarly in the week don't spend a nickel, and leave your credit cards at home. Even if you're not maxed out at the moment, you're about to run into a great opportunity that you'll need some ready cash to exploit. It could come as early as Wednesday, when you discover something new that's considerably more exciting than anything you've experienced in a while. Parents or more distant relatives will play a role in the weekend's activities, and you might have to deal with their weirdness in a whole new way.

PiscesIt may not be your birthday, but it could very well feel like it on Monday -- and Tuesday also. Treat yourself well, and others will follow suit. Be careful of getting too self-absorbed though, because by midweek you'll find yourself surrounded by confusing signs and gestures that will leave you struggling to understand what people mean. Everything will become clear over the weekend, so don't worry too much until then. Writing will be especially helpful for you.

AriesDon't hold back as the week begins. On Monday, you should follow the urge to let others know how you're feeling (especially women and family members). That emotional clearing could leave you feeling exceptionally energetic from Monday night through Wednesday. Use this boost in creativity and competitiveness to mix things up and make things happen. On Thursday and Friday (and on into early Saturday), you might feel overwhelmed by details. Just take a deep breath and take your time. From Saturday evening through the remainder of the weekend, use your charms to get what you want.

TaurusTake a risk as the week begins, especially in romance. In any social situation, though, you can count on being rewarded for your daring on Monday. From Monday evening through Wednesday, you'll need to curb your more cantankerous side. Others might try to draw you into ego battles and power struggles, but a little diplomacy can go a long way. From Thursday to early Saturday, romance could blossom yet again. Use your charms generously. On late Saturday and Sunday, look for ways to give your routine a shot of excitement.

GeminiYou might not feel your good ol' adaptable self as the week begins, but try not to be too critical. Conflicting demands will make it difficult to be flexible on Monday. The situation should lighten up from Monday evening through Wednesday, as you find yourself the center of attention, surrounded by like-minded friends who want to have fun debating heady ideas. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, you'll need to focus on life's smaller details (like bills and errands), but expect to have a lot more fun on Saturday night and Sunday. You'll have plenty of energy for taking on new things, whether ideas, projects or conversations.

CancerExpect your week to begin on an enthusiastic, energetic note. You'll have no shortage of drive or direction on Monday and others will pitch in to help you accomplish anything you put your mind to. That extravagant energy should carry you well through Wednesday -- so don't be bashful about taking risks right now. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, see to the details and focus on accomplishing smaller tasks. On Saturday evening and Sunday, watch for threats to your domestic bliss. Deploy a full-scale diplomatic effort on the home front.

LeoYou're feeling exceptionally generous with your affection and attention as the week begins and that's a good thing. Your warmth and earnestness could help others accomplish a lot on Monday and you can expect to receive that same support returned to you in the days ahead. From Monday evening through Wednesday, you're the center of attention and no effort of yours will go unaided. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, take time to reassess your long-term plans and strategies. On Saturday night and Sunday, focus on your friends. Find any excuse to go have some fun.

VirgoStart your week off by organizing something social and fun. That group energy can leave you feeling revved up on Monday and ready for anything. From Monday evening through Wednesday, you might start to feel overwhelmed by pesky details, but don't despair -- with a little flexibility, you can help yourself and others get organized. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, everything will start to click into place and make sense. Use your insights to get a lot done (and to help others do the same). For the rest of the weekend, look for opportunities to dig in deep and get to know others better.

LibraKeep your head down as the week begins. Events will conspire to disrupt your routine on Monday, but your easygoing nature (with an added dose of flexibility) can steer you clear. From Monday evening through Wednesday, others will look to you to take the lead, so be generous with your ideas and your optimistic attitude. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, look for opportunities to hang out with friends (and, especially, to be a good listener and confidante). Late Saturday and Sunday find you extraordinarily charismatic and energetic -- and flirtatious, too!

ScorpioAs the week begins, don't be bashful about going after what you want. Monday should provide perfect opportunities for you to fulfill ambitions (and maybe even dream up some new ones). From Monday evening through Wednesday, you need to curb your ego if you want to avoid getting entangled in an unwelcome power struggle. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, spend time with good friends. Not only will you have fun, you'll probably learn a secret or two, too. On Saturday night and Sunday, relax and let your subconscious help you work through a thorny problem.

SagittariusFollow your inquisitive mood as the week begins, even if it means asking tough questions. Monday begins with you digging in deep and looking for answers, but by Monday evening -- and on through Wednesday -- you'll be back to your freewheeling, happy-go-lucky self. Luck is on your side and you should take every attractive risk that comes along. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, you'll need to be a little more cautious with details and the demands of others, but that need should evaporate again by late Saturday, when you become the one with all the answers. For the remainder of the weekend, you'll be loved and lauded.

CapricornThere's change in the air as the week begins. Watch out for new -- and challenging -- ideas on Monday. Even if others overreact, though, don't take any of the resulting debate personally. From late Monday and on through Wednesday, emotions could keep running high. You'll need to summon up your best diplomatic skills to mediate. From Thursday through early Saturday, your extraordinary planning skills and command of the facts will earn you applause, possibly from someone far away. On late Saturday and Sunday, focus on getting a lot done, even if you have trouble getting feedback and connecting with others.

AquariusDon't get riled up as the week begins! Everything might not be going your way on Monday, but take a deep breath and realize this is just a phase. By late Monday and continuing on through Wednesday, sudden shifts could change your current outlook completely, so don't hesitate to experiment and seek out bold, new discoveries. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, you'll need to take extra care in dealing with details and competing agendas -- especially anything that involves business or finances. On late Saturday and Sunday, find time to meet someone new (and learn something new, too).

PiscesCelebrate the start of your week by creating something new -- whether it's a new breakfast, a new friendship or even a new theme song. Your week could get more difficult later on Monday (and on through Wednesday), as complicating details threaten to overwhelm. If you can keep your head down, though, you can resist getting swept up in the demands -- and dramas -- of others. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, jump into action and don't worry about having all the facts first. On late Saturday and Sunday, try to collect on debts in a partnership (whether literal or metaphorical).

GeminiYou might not feel your good ol' adaptable self as the week begins, but try not to be too critical. Conflicting demands will make it difficult to be flexible on Monday. The situation should lighten up from Monday evening through Wednesday, as you find yourself the center of attention, surrounded by like-minded friends who want to have fun debating heady ideas.

Well, the bit about yesterday is totally true because NOTHING went the way I wanted to...
